Re: Symbol 'System_Init' not defined

This is pretty basic CC stuff, Symbol not defined means it tried linking to the library and couldn't find it, it's the .a or .lib file, it should go into the lib folder or in your working folder and you tell the compiler to use the library via the -L (library path if it's in a non standard folder) a...

Re: 3D FPS Example

I think it's because of the lack of float precision (but I get this even with floats on 3DS :? ). The only way I know how to fix it, is to use vector lookups (indices), ie use the same exact vectors that the surrounding faces use. But it could be the emulator being over precise, try a different rend...

Re: What's the better for PS1-3D?

level geometry: #Quads = if you're using like a doom style (texture brush I think it's called, ie BSP), where the texture (TIM) is the tile(wall/floor), everything is easier (level, coding) and faster and if enabled, can do auto division (into tris, to stop texture warping) when the camera gets clos...

Yes, 16bit TIM's are very easy to create!

Re: [Question] Can i create TIM with multiple CLUT's?

I thought 16bit tims don't have CLUT's? I did 4bit clut generation and clut swapping.. via brute forcing it.. Saving a single image (different colours in a clut) and timtool that image (move it to the display buffer.. not needed) and clut (keep it safe), then in code you just swap between cluts. I'm...

Re: Psy-Q TIM EXAMPLE

Not sure what you mean by 'TIM editor'. If you want to create TIM's in PS1 RAM dynamically, you can, the 16bit format was the easiest for me anyway :roll: I was thinking I could just have an array of colors in my project, and somehow tell a textured primitive to take that data and use it. Is this po...

Yes, that's what SioFS is, a PSX side client with mcomms as the PC side server.

Re: PSn00b Debugger - Homebrew debugger for retail consoles

my 2cents: Anything that requires old hardware is counter productive, even if it's faster. Accessibility is more important then usability etc. Net Yaroze comms cable, PS link cable, AR/Xplorer, old ISA/PCI slots & cards, and physical parallel and serial ports just make it harder. Anything that i...

Interesting info, thanks! Would you happen to have an example of a batch loading script? I didn't see any references to it in the docs.

Just watched your Psn00b video! Pretty impressive man! :clap That's damn amazing! I actually got a question regarding the loader mcomms .... Is a 400KB executable that common? I know it is when you "Combine" assets and exe together. With the Net Yaroze you loaded your assets first and last...

The copyrights have expired. It's classified as 'abandonware' now. Sony doesn't care about it because it doesn't make them any money. The SDK is very obsolete by their standards.
